Hard to say, mostly because this version doesn't use X11. You can try to do this and I can give you  ...

I don't need the DE. I'd like the os start into kodi, but I'd like also to modify the system, install and manage all I want. E.g. I can't use apt-get in openelec

If you dont need X11 then it should work, but this patched Kodi doesn't come in any install friendly version. Download correct sources (16.1) patch it using patches from my github and then build it.

I'm not very good in this things, but I can try! Thank you a lot!!

EDIT: I had to download the sources of kodi, aplly the patches that I found on your github anc then compile with the instructions that I found on the FAQ on the forum?

I forgot my github pass, so i will write here. I can't build image from https://github.com/jernejsk/OpenELEC-OPi2. Error is:

1. Cant't get ccache sources : http://samba.org/ftp/ccache/ccache-3.3.3.tar.bz2
   
2. Try later !!
   
3. Makefile:10: recipe for target 'image' failed

Copy code

1. http://sources.openelec.tv/mirror/ccache/ccache-3.3.3.tar.bz2
   
2. Resolving sources.openelec.tv (sources.openelec.tv)... 82.220.2.33
   
3. Connecting to sources.openelec.tv (sources.openelec.tv)|82.220.2.33|:80... connected.
   
4. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 404 Not Found
   

Copy code

About sources.openelec.tv, there is no ccache-3.3.3.tar.bz2, so maybe this is normal behaviour.

Copy code

About http://samba.org/ftp/ccache/ccache-3.3.3.tar.bz2, i noticed it's https, not http, so the correct link must be https://samba.org/ftp/ccache/ccache-3.3.3.tar.bz2 .
I try to manually copy ccache-3.3.3.tar.bz2 to /OpenELEC-OPi2/sources/ccache , but the script still try to download it and i have the same error.
Where can i edit this to correct the link? Or how can i skip downloading of this file, since i manually download it (if it is in correct directory)?

Easy, just search through packages. Then you will found this:
packages/devel/ccache/package.mk

There you can easily fix the issue, as I will do on github.

I try to update the libreelec well it is more copy paste job from your openelec git only have to change some pkg_git_url to pkg_url  and change some openelec directions to librelec . and a ggc6.h patch

so far everythig compiles with gcc 6.2 don't know if that is a issue ? i think not mayby some patches for gcc6 like the gcc6-h for the kernel

so kernel and uboot sunxi-packages mali etc are the same as your openelec  i was not sure about systemd so i took the version from the openelec

so far it was easy   more fighting with git   but a compare tool also works just cost you some hd space

I'm almost at the point to try the hw patches for kodi , but here the fun is gonna start

install the cedarx package and adjusting the kodi videoplayer and egl windowing ?

Thank's, this worked . But there is another brocken link, samba again - http://download.samba.org/pub/samba/stable/samba-3.6.25.tar.gz, have to be https://download.samba.org/pub/samba/stable/samba-3.6.25.tar.gz . I found the link in /OpenELEC-OPi2/packages/network/samba/package.mk and fix it the same way. No more troubles since.

Everything fixed by pulling upstream changes.

I'm glad you pursuing this. So indeed you are at the hardest point, but result will be great once you are done.
